Lets talk about what keeps us awake at night .

I have always been a very poor sleeper from my kids being little, even now i very rare sleep before 3 or 4 am as my brain comes alive and springs into action when its quiet in the house.

Sometimes i wish i could switch it off as i can get pretty exhausted at times, but ive tried note books and jotting things down to ease my mind but its never enough.

Ive been to the doctors on several occasions over the years only to be told i wont die from lack of sleep sass xxx

I was taught a simple method known as Biofeedback by a psychologist. You picture yourself in a comfortable place, imagine yourself being there. When you truely relax, your skin temperature rises and your heart rate slows, your surroundings fade away, and, POOF!!!. You are in dreamland. I used this technique when I worked rotating shifts. Most of the time, now, I don't even have the time to use it. I fall asleep within 5 minutes. Give it a try Wen. Practice and you'll take control of your sleep back.
